In fact, contrary to popular belief, this is not correct.

I understand that you're "a n00b", so you might want to ask someone for a translation if you don't quite follow all of this.

You just need to copy over your vB PHP files (/forum_root/*.php and /forum_root/includes/*.php) to your non-vB server so that you're able to include global.php. You will also need to modify your database settings in this copy of vB's config.php file to point to the remote mySQL server.

This works for me.
